The sole source opportunity, numbered S23-0476, seeks safety infrastructure products designed to physically separate traffic lanes from bike lanes and pedestrian zones, with a response deadline of Friday, July 7, 2023 at 5:00 pm.

The letter is signed by Susan Altenbach, President of DezignLINE, and includes contact information for further inquiries, suggesting the company is positioning itself as the exclusive provider of these specialized traffic separation and safety infrastructure solutions.
